Subject: Re: MAGA wants more brutality

.. but, from the first graph in the article, the Republican base broadly supports ICE actions, the rest being split evenly into those that think "ICE has gone too far" and "ICE hasn't gone far enough".

Yes. I have seen that poll before. Trump the God is only concerned with how his MAGA base sees it. Three quarters of his base is either OK with the current level of brutality, beatings, and shootings, or wants ICE to go harder.

The woman in Chicago, who a CPB agent shot five times, has persuaded the court to have agent's body camera video released to the public. While the agent who shot her was not wearing a camera, other agents were. This is the same case where text messages between the agents showed the shooter bragging about how many bullets he put into the woman.

The government dropped it's charges against the woman last November, so seems she was shot, repeatedly, over nothing. The government apparently continues to call her a "domestic terrorist".

Judge allows release of body camera footage in case of Chicago woman shot by CBP

A federal judge on Friday granted a motion to permit the public release of body camera footage and other evidence in the case of a Chicago woman who was shot five times by a Customs and Border Protection agent last fall.

During Friday's hearing, Judge Alexakis took aim at the government's continued allegations about Martinez, despite dropping its case against her.

"I don't understand why the United States government, after being given many, many opportunities to do so, has expressed zero concern about the sullying of Miss Martinez's reputation," the judge said. "She's a United States citizen ... and under our legal system, it bears repeating, she's presumed innocent of any offense for which she has not been convicted."
